fatiaforreal:

Lagos has been attractive long before colonization, much longer before you started arriving here by your night buses.
Maybe you need to be reminded, it was poverty and wretchedness that drove you here; you never came to Lagos as merchants or investors. So be realistic and sincere with yourself in your analyses Mr Developer who loves others more than himself.
Your real problem is you're naturally filled with, and driven by hatred. Full of greed, you lack respect for people.

totit:


My brother, I just tire, at the rate those peopl abuse the word " developed " is annoyingly shocking to say the least.

deomelo:
I asked you how exactly did igbo people develop Lagos? They built the schools, hospitals, roads, bridges, power plants, water works, GRA's, VI, Ikoyi, Eko Atlantic, Banana Island, Lekki, Leki Ikoyi bridge and so on?

It is ok if you think one day igbo people will go back home to develop their land and they are going to be 10 times bigger than Yorubaland, that's fine, but please list the ones igbo people built or explain to us how igbo people develop Lagos.

Ngozi123:
I really wish that all of the Igbos screaming for "One Nigeria" would come and see this thread. Every Igbo man and woman needs to understand that the vast majority of Nigerians do not really see them as their equals, deserving of the same opportunities they have. Why exactly do some of us still want to stay in the same country as these people?

Ngozi123:


Don't mind them. I can only hope that more Igbos are reading these comments and looking at the situation around them. Hopefully, they'll wake up and smell the coffee.

This your Biafra, are you going to actualise it by just abusing others, wailing that they tied you down like Naama the goat, crying daily about marginalisation........ or by doing what you should do: PACK-UP and LEAVE

Everyone that supports your agitation is expecting you to act by relocating everything you own ....yet you just dey fall hand!

Everyday, at least One Thousand of you dump your Homeland in the East and run to Lagos, yet you start crying "they wont allow us to go"!

Go and let us hear word joor, everyone is fed up with your silly antics.

I'm not Igbo but I recognize a colossal failure when I see one. Nigeria is a disaster.. Fusing and creating borders amongs different ethnic with foreign cultures like the British Colonists did was a recipe for disaster. The Berlin conference set Africa back.
Hopefully when Igbos finally exit Nigeria it can be done peacefully with a referendum similar to Brexit.

At the emboldened :
But why do some of you iboes reason down south?
Can you prove the emboldened? And besides, if there are more iboes in SE than the whole of Lagos or SW and you are so good at developing other people's land. How come your vast population in SE couldn't developed alaigbo as you did with Lagos.?

Honestly, I don taaya for you people. The way you reason can be so annoying.

Anyway, I will be here waiting for you to prove to the whole world how you developed Lagos with less ibos population while the whole of SE with vast population of iboes couldn't achieved the same hence you lamentation.

No worry we will soon.

Buhari has made it obvious that one Nigeria is a pipe dream

DPsalmist2:

Godspeed.

laudate:


You are the one that needs to shut your own mouth! Do you think what you described here only happens to the Igbo? Do you feel the Itsekiri, Igala, Efik, Kalabari, Urhobo, Yoruba, Idoma, Bini, Egun etc., have not experienced the same thing at different levels? How many of them do you see wailing on NL, because of this experience? How many of them have launched arrows of hate against other ethnic groups, like your fellow IPOB clowns? How many have advocated that violence should be used to dismember Nigeria, in order for them to get their own republic? Abeg, swerve!

Funlordmaniac:





So on point number 1 you agree that they lack unity amongst themselves? So whose fault is that anyway? Or you want to also blame that on afonjeezys, muslims or tiv people?


Then on point number 2! Who forces your igbo cousins to spend billions in lagos? Why are they averse to spending the same billions in anambara, enugu, Imo or ebonyi? Or is there a federal law that deprives them of investing in their own region the same way they do in others? Why can't you people ever pick one lane and stick to it!

360command:
this tribe you made mention have benefited from the share even as a minority. I know what I am saying when it comes to been in the military/para military as an Igbo in the federal states. it does not go well on them. to tell you the truth, things became fair when obasanjo came into power. he changed the system completely from salary payment, transfer, position ranking etc. he made it equal at every level.. if people can say bad about obasanjo but to me, i respected him more when he overhaul the system. it was no more as it used to be when the northerners takes all. as as we know, Nigeria is a step forward but 10steps backward. please my issue is not with any tribe but what I despised seeing is when somebody with no certificate or experience who just arrived into the job, becomes a boss in the federal sector.. you might not know the pain maybe a friend or family has not suffered such loss which is why you talk this way. it is better you give them the republic they ask for. is it by force to be in the same Nigeria with you.

Huddler:



Oga, Igbos developed Lagos and they are still developing the parts that needs development.

Have you been to any southeast state? only Lagos can beat Anambra When it comes to infrastructures and industries.

You are not even from Lagos sef mtcheew. Lagos brought up Igbos are more Lagosian than you.

Nowenuse:


The extremely greedy and capitalistic nature of Igbos will never allow them develop their own lands like others because their own homeland is too competitive, hence they have to go elsewhere where they feel they can easily dominate, outsmart and catch others mugu.

Your greed and avariciousness is your problem!

Opakan2:


we know their problem, they always want to be the ones in control, running things as others are not good enof.

The nonsense they tried with GEJ (a prodigal minority) but can't get an inch near PMB. so dem no dey happy.

Yorubas being wiser than they are, kept quiet when they hijacked GEJ's govt.. we knew they can't try that with a core Northerner so we waited for them at the polls.

These guys will cry till eternity and still nothing will happen.. they've shown their true colour during GEJ's tenure

laudate:


Again, I am asking you if it is only the Igbo that have suffered from what you described here. To the best of my knowledge, other ethnic groups especially minorities, have also experienced the same thing in the military/para military agencies, so what else is new? And what do you mean by saying "this tribe you made mention have benefited from the share even as a minority." What share??

As for your closing statement, where you claimed: "it is better you give them the republic they ask for. is it by force to be in the same Nigeria with you." I was not aware that anyone was dragging them back. When an ethnic group wants to leave a country, there are specific political steps they need to take, in order to achieve their exit. Your people have not done so, instead they keep lamenting that others are not letting them go.

Do they think that after making such an announcement, the next thing that will automatically happen, is that a new republic will be carved out for them by the authorities? Is that the way it is done?

tete7000:


I do not agree with you on some of your arguments.
You said ibos property littered everywhere in Nigeria but others don't build in ibo land. Could it be that this happen because ibos have penchant for running out rather than stay at home to develop their land? Secondly could it be that others don't build in ibo land because Ibos are not accommodating to others the way other accomodate them?
You say ibos believe in the concept of one nigeria but do you know my experience as a Yoruba man living in lagos is that ibo will prefer to deal and trust with fellow Ibos than trust anyone else? I have stories to buttress my point. Do you know landlords in lagos are wary of Ibos because often times when an ibo man leaves your house, he is more likely to handover your house to his ibo kinsman rather than handover your key to you?
Do you believe that there is no smoke without fire and thus discrimination face by ibos in Nigeria is contributed in part to by ibos themselves?
While I do not subscribe to anyone being discriminated upon in what is considered to be a nation, I believe it will be equally disheartening for ibos to lay all blames of this on everyone else while not wishing to share a part of the blame. Responsibility demands we look inward first before blaming other for our woes. We might not be able to change others but we can change how we react to situation and force other to behave differently to us.

12345baba:
am Ibo but we Ibo's hate ourselves so much. Me and My parents move down to Nigeria in 2009 we settled down in our home town onitsha and after two weeks or so the group massob came and kidnapped my father after we settled them we decided to move to Abuja. So bone this Ibo not going home cos some of them have tried that and didn't live to tell the story. We hate ourselves so much abeg. Fu*k Ibo nation struggle for Now, let's work on our mindset first. My story is just one out of many.

Jacks14:
oboy take origin n chill a little...your brother husling in the north and other part of the country will never develop ur land or invest in it because deep inside an igbo man's hrt u guys are enemies of each other even in one family.the moment u c one of u start hitting coins na only which n wizard or juju u go lunch for that person n send him to the land of no return or to arrange kidnappers and hired killer to do that person...that y some wise among decide to stay n develop the land of far far away.could u imagine even some igbos are afraid to go home for christmas just for the fear of unknown becos of u wicked hrt...the truth be to said; those igbos more especially in the north hate ur so called biafra*d cuz they it is gone the ojukwu died only one blind mad nmadi kanu in his dream thinking biafra*d can be archived...flat heads

Dude! ur wasting your time, there is no love between hausa, igbo and yoruba, sooner or later they will head to their various nations.

Three captins cannot run one ship. Nigeria is a nation with three founding fathers instead of one.

There are at least three countries in Nigeria.(minimum) They wont stay together beco there is too much bad blood.

It does not matter wat ur people think or feel, Igbos dont care right now, wat we care about is wat is good for us and how we feel.

Before it was IPOB, now it is Igbo leaders, fact here is they are tired and want out of Nigeria. They are no longer interested or believe in Nigeria.

laudate:


Those of you that want to leave should recall your senators, legislators, ministers, federal appointees etc., to Igbo land. Before they leave, just ask them to raise the issue of your new republic on the floor of the house, in the green and red chamber. The topic should be debated thoroughly and concluded. Then, they should take all the necessary political steps to activate their exit. Chikena! All this IPOB propaganda on NL, is quite unnecessary.

Senators Exchange Blows As Biafra Mentioned
Real drama was witnessed in the upper legislative chambers as
Nigerian senators fought over Biafra issue.
A senator from the north suggested that Islamic state should be
given to Boko Haram to stop the killings.
Senator Ike Ekweremadu says that his people should be given
Biafra as well.
And he further states that Biafra is older that Nigeria.
The senator from the north threw bottled water on him for
mentioning Biafra.
Senator Enyinnaya Abaribe fought the senator from north for
fighting his brother.

Haba, go easy on the exaggerations, biko! I guess people from other ethnic groups folded their arms, and watched your brethren developing Lagos, not so? I guess all the housing estates and 6-storey buildings in Lagos were designed and built by your people, including the roads, bridges, airports and seaports. Na wah, oh!

waternogetenemy:
I know u follow the news but just in case u missed it. This is how ur feverish non igbos behaved wen the matter was raised at the Senate.

Nigeria was founded by a legal document that specified that Nigeri will epire by 2014, the ICCand UN is a better root.

I Nigeria is a failed State.

You are free to believe whatever you like about Nigeria. Your opinions do not affect or change anything. As for the debate in the senate, your representatives turned the place into a boxing arena, instead of a place where serious issues are treated. Let them raise the issue of biafra on the floor of the House of reps and Senate again. Even the writer of that story, published a disclaimer, meaning he was not sure of the accuracy of the story.

When the Biafra issue has been properly debated and satisfactorily concluded, they should let the rest of us know. As for the rest of your post claiming that Nigeria will expire by 2014, please post the real legal document backing it up here, so we can read and verify.

360command:
they have made reports to national house of assembly, submitted reports to the UN.like you said, there are steps in other for them to achieve it.. even the president has said " the unity of Nigeria is non negotiable".

to me, these Igbo's have the capabilities to achieve their goal so as any other regions but to these people they have been segregated so much. I can testify to you and say what I know, even with whatever degree an Igbo man carries today and he is in any military / paramilitary role, as long as a northern man is in power , I repeat"a northern man" the Igbo's will not smell any big position..
